As a professional musician, you should think of investing in a professional quality set of full sized, over the ear sealed studio headphones or a good pair of in ear monitors. You might want to consider a headphone amp to up the volume, and to allow you to mix a musical guide track or a click track playing in the background with the signal that you're recording.

While any earbuds, or wired or Bluetooth headphones, will suffice for listening to a guide track or a click track to record against, they won't allow you to evaluate the sound of your live or recorded performances, especially on a noisy stage.

Bluetooth headphones generally have inferior audio quality compared to wired headphones. To learn more about the limitations of Bluetooth, Read This Article.
